Yeah, you can still see differences but it's improving.

Do you mean differences like physical (architecture, infrastructure) or political or social?

No, and if there is, it's three regions, not two. So it shows you that it's about regionism, not different regimes.

But you miostly see North and South Vietnamese because, eh, the central is the least developed and least populous part.

Crazy to think that the DDR was the only white country on earth to ever have communism.

there's an economic power gap between former east germany and the rest of the country
poles cross the border to see sad germans
funnily enough, at the unification Kohl promised eastern germans flourishing fields n shit
you could say they got verKOHLed

they only had socialism

i remember that the usa almost elected a gommie president didn't it?
too bad they realized that wouldn't bump the number of white countries

Both. Riding on rails, I saw a lot of rundown areas in rural Eastern areas. I looked outside the windows once an thought "Hey, that's not bad", checked Google Maps and realized I was in the West again.
Eastern Germans often earn less than their Western counterparts. Also their pensions are still lower.
And Westeners and Easterners still like to make fun of each other.

Four even, i think Tây Nguyên is often seen as a different regions, although it's in the central.

Which region do you keep your prisoner of war camps. I want my grandpa back

All over the country, dunno. You white or Vietnamese? I think American soldier all came back.

>DDR was the only white country on earth to ever have communism
i see what you did there
do you think north vietnam and south vietnam have more similarity than east germany and west germany?

How's post communist life in Romania? Any problems still happening or evident

Yes to all actually, of course in varying distinctiveness.

East Germany has far more commieblocks than the west, some have been torn down, some have been renovated. East German roads partially are better than west German roads, especially on Autobahn routes, thanks to solidary federal funding.

Politically east Germans are far more reactive and doubtful than west Germans, possibly because of the mistrust in the government from socialist times. The far right parties have gotten up to 25% of votes in eastern German state elections in the past few years, and the left is more popular in the east, too. West Germans simply continue voting for the same big center parties like they've done for the last 60 years no matter what happens, and they get really fucking angry at east German voting patterns, and then east Germans get angry for being called backwards and xenophobic.

Socially you can still feel influences from past social systems. East Germans are more exclusive but also more solidary. West Germans have less of a problem with immigrants, but are less likely to help others in the first place.

Personally I'd say eastern Germany is actually the transition zone between the Americanized cultural circle and the slavic cultural circle even though Poland is actually the first properly slavic country. But 40 years of slavic political pacts don't pass by without leaving marks.

In term of economy? Yes, the South is more developed, the Southeast mostly, the economy of the Southwest is based mostly on rice farming.

depends on what you define as "post-communist life"
we were THE poorest state in the warsaw pact in fact but bulgaria took our place now and soon croatia
the older generation lived on gibs and misses it so there's a bit of nostalgia
the country has been growing breaddy fast so there's that
lots of people on subsistence farming but that's been going down
people still starve to death but it's not brazil level and more because they're retarded
>But 40 years of slavic political pacts don't pass by without leaving marks.
that's nothing, try centuries

I do want to stress again the last part of my post. The region being under both slavic influence and Americanized influence really is impactful on German regional societies themselves and inner-German relations as well as international relations. The west Germans see east Germans as backwards yokels that still carry Soviet-era thinking around with them and are paranoid and xenophobic. The slavic nations see east Germans as westernized, Americanized, race traiting faggots. East Germans themselves don't feel their priorities and worries properly represented in federal politics because they're only a fifth of the German population and get outvoted 1:4 by "naive", "politically corret" west Germans. The inner-German sociopolitical conflicts have become all the more apparent with recent political crises.

Does Romania still have oil? Much industry around it?

oil you say?
